But Anthony Carter threw a pass like Rex Grossman.

LMFAO
Ariza did a Ed Reed like INT

Fisher hitting big shots.

Gasol with key blocks and rebounds.

Ariza with the excellent D.

& Kobe being Kobe.

I love it.

This series will be better than Bos/Chi.
It will only get more physical.
Even tho Denver doesn't have a Shane Battier or Ron Artest I think Kobe worked just as hard if not 95% as hard as he did last series for his buckets.
I hate Kobe more.
Fisher remembered he was in the NBA.
Ariza needs proactive.
Billups needs to be a leader throughout the game not 75% Denver needs to hit their free throws.

With all that said fair win by the Lakers. It will be a good series and I still believe the Nuggets will win.

FIXED.

 

[Lizakers]

SMH at billups steppin on the line RIGHT in front of the ref and NO CALL

 

[simplisd]

LOL @ JR

good game

I know you was mad as hell when he got that steal on the inbound.

Game 2 is almost a for certain must win for them

OKAY BUDDY

 

[bravo]

stuart scott using the same "denver nuggets have been to the finals*counts in his head* once" line twice ftl

 

[misterp0315]

 

[mytoasterspeak]

Defense, execution, and matchups win in the playoffs. Denver executed horribly at the end of the game on D and O, and were atrocious from the line. Lakersain't win that game, Denver gave it away.

 

[arrjae]

80 + pages for game one!

looking forward for game 2....
see you ppl tomorrow for the east. conf. finals!

 

[wings90]

Good game. 1 down.

 

[ctdaprince]

great game that was a good one KOBE clutch free throw. Carmelo is a beast gotta give him his props

why doesnt the NBA look at how College teams extend games with the fouls...

bad enough he had AC inbounding but for them not to foull was ludacris

so u 'd rather be down 4 with 4 seconds left then down 4 with 20 seconds. PURE GENIUS ...

If they get a stop then they're down 2 with 4 seconds left...come on man

 

[nflowshoe]

2 things nuggets need to do to win
1. Put a better defender on kobe, donte jones and carter are terrible, kobe was scoring at will
2.limit turnovers and hit free throws.

 

[jayjay414]

Good game Lakers!...see ya thursday!...damn melo and kobe had identical games damn near...

Wait... what!? This just made me forget the Lakers W. Not only does this cat only serve 2 months for his Rambo weaponry but he also gets a getoutta jail free pass for a Laker game? Someone explain.

 

[goldmember]

I don't understand why the hell was Carter inbounding the ball ... A taller guy would obviously see the floor a lot clearly..

Oh NVM , i remember who the coach is ..

1 - 0

Melo and Kobe going at it

.. Lebron would probably shy away from that challenge ..
